Should a Scooter Use 92 or 95 Octane Gasoline?

[Marilyn]

Motorcycles can use either 92 or 95 octane gasoline. Reference for motorcycle gasoline grade selection: For many small and medium-sized motorcycles, 92 octane gasoline is commonly used. However, using 95 octane gasoline offers better acceleration performance, with quicker power response and reduced engine vibration compared to 92 octane. The difference lies in the isooctane content—higher octane gasoline has better anti-knock properties. 95 octane gasoline is purer than 92 octane, releasing more kinetic energy during combustion in the engine. As a result, higher fuel efficiency and longer range can be achieved. Motorcycle refueling precautions: For motorcycles below 150CC, the oil capacity is usually less than one liter. Never overfill the engine oil—the correct amount should be checked using the oil dipstick or observation window. Overfilling can lead to engine overheating or oil leaks. Do not arbitrarily switch to a lower octane fuel, as this may cause premature combustion and engine knocking.
